Restriction Challenge

Presenters:  Carole Twichell and Bridgette Kirkpatrick

Take a look at a great classroom activity/exam question about restriction enzymes.  The learning objectives for the activity are:

•Proper use of restriction endonucleases

•Tying restriction fragmentation to electrophoresis

•Critical Thinking

Students will need to develop strategies using only restriction endonucleases and electrophoresis to solve plasmid cloning problems.
